Indentation experiments are now being used to study the elastic and plastic properties of materials on a sub-micrometer scale. Simulations of these experiments have been performed using the finite element method under the conditions of frictionless and completely adhesive contact and within the context of incremental elasto-plasticity. Comparison of these simulated results with experimental results demonstrates that the continuum based finite element approach has the capability to determine the load depth response of a sub-micrometer indentation test. It is also shown that the hardness and elastic modules of the can be obtained from the loading and unloading portoins of these simulated curves.
